Hello, beautiful readers! Thank you for all the prayers and healing energy for my mom. She is not out of the woods yet, but she is on the mend. It is freezing cold in Miami. It was in the 30s for the past two nights. Yesterday was the worst of it. I woke up to ice on my windshield. In Miami! This is crazy! Today's temps are going from the 30s to the 60s in one day. Normally, the 60s are cold to me, but I am looking forward to it. Perspective. Lol!
I am hosting again at #TankaTuesday, and this week I proposed that we write a poem focused on cleansing. Usually, I start every new year by saging my home. The intent was there, but for one reason or another, I didn't get around to it until this past weekend. Maybe the universe knew I still had a few things to deal with in January before ridding my home of all that negative energy.

wisps of burning sage
all dark energy removed

fresh, new beginnings welcomed
peace and harmony commence

DeleteIce in Miami! That is crazy, Yvette. Here in Oregon, 60 degrees is T-shirt weather. Lol. A beautiful poem and an inspiring idea. I have some sage around here somewhere and a cleansing is long overdue. <3 <3 Hugs.
ReplyDeleteI forgot to un-anonymous myself. - Hugs, Diana

DeleteI bet a sage home smells delightful! I hope your mother is well on the mend, Yvette. Your poem is lovely; your weather sounds frightful. We will be in Miami in less than two weeks to depart on a cruise. I hope the weather sorts itself out before then! :) xxx
